The Lucetti Dynasty of Genoa
A terrible plague struck the city, many years ago. A common enough story, one which can be heard in any place in Italy, or France, or Aragon, or any number of countries. It raged on for weeks, months, maybe even years. It killed thousands, devastated the economy, left the city and its people in ruins. And what did the noble leaders of the city do? They ran away to their mansions in the country, leaving the common people to die in filthy agony. Eventually, a man and a woman, having lost three children with two more lying sick on the ground, said enough was enough. They gathered the support of those who survived, and seized power, declaring that it was now a democratic city of the people. That was lovely, for a generation, until one of their two surviving sons married the only child of a very rich banker, inherited the business, and began pulling all the strings in the democracy. Ah, well, a few generations later and the people can’t even remember what it was like to govern themselves...

Be kinder to yourself. And then let your kindness flood the world.
